Phanfare Blog: Just in time for the holidays - Fullscreen video arrives at Phanfare

    Do you include the ability to display at "native resolution" as well? Can you store the resolution you prefer as a preference?
    I haven't tried this feature yet, but I really like the HD capabilities offered by Vimeo and by Exposure Room. XR has the best quality that I've seen so far for a video service. If your capabilities can rival theirs, I say Rock On!
    Happy New Year!

    you can't specify the resolution we use. 640x480 and 1.3 megabits/second is the highest resolution and bit rate we show today. that can look a little pixelated when stretched full screen, but if you sit back and enjoy the show, it usually looks pretty good. we would need to go higher than 1.3 mbits/second to do a bigger video and have the quality be adequate. we might do that in the future as broadband speeds increase. we retain a 4 megabit/second version accessible under "download original" that we could use to make higher quality renditions.
